Greetings swaimj, Coming to Jerusalem: The place where the temple was built. This was built in accordance with the promise and command of God, and one and only place to offer and sacrifice. (Deu 12:11 "Then there shall be a place which the LORD your God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there; thither shall ye bring all that I command you; your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which ye vow unto the LORD:"). Jesus being The Sacrifice. Cleansing of the Temple: Our Lord is represented here as purifying his temple; and this we may judge he did in reference to his true temple, the Church, to show that nothing that was worldly or unholy should have any place among his followers, or in that heart in which he should condescend to dwell. 1Jo 2:16 "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world." Execution - Sacrifice: The Holy Temple - what a fitting sight to have the Lamb of All Sacrifies submit Himself for slaughter, as decreed by the Old Testament. Mat 23:37 "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee,..." Act 3:18 "But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled." Thank you Jesus, terrib |
